Be it known -heL'HoMAs E. FoeALsAQG, citizen oi"- the Uiiffed States,resifinj* in *He city and county o @an Francia i S of Califoiiie, haveinvented new ems. izseui improvements in Eieciic H'eaeis, of which heoiowing is specilceioii.

rhis invention relates to au electric heater and particuiariy pe'teiiisno {eviee for heating Waer and other' iiquidsy menons of eiec'ziicif'ay.

it is he objec of iiiis invention to pio-A vide L simpie, cheap,pieeticail, sanivw' mez'soii electric heate meaiifi i weite? ci? @theyiiquiffis may be .e ing cii'cuaied between, and in dire' taci; with,non-metaiic, non-coiiwisive eiee- @miei such" as carooodiese electrodesso thee wiii be no meii ,to come iii Contact with the iuid feo beheaed..

Such @lecci-"e-105 a position off the carbone 2 2. esrmay place Wil in no way proveinjurious to the liquid being heated, es Carbon has no deleteriouseffects on most liquids.

This construction of exposed non-metnllie, electrical heating units maybe employed in :i variety of Ways end for a variety of imei, as, notonly as en ordinary water heater, bei for heating ilzitirons, ee., whereihese e posed electrodes :ire surrounded by e body of liquid from whichAthe heat transmitted To the iron.

'Having thus described my i1iveniio11,\\'lnit claim and desire to Secureby Letters; Patent ie-a l. An immersion electric healer comprising ahandle having zi tnhnhir end forni ing :i Chamber, zi parir of exposed,eiirhon electrodes each having,i one end iixed to the chamber of thehandle, ineens` for holding)- the electrodes upzirt ro provide anintermediae miller heating space, and n performed inelosnre for 'heelectrodes, Suid inelosiire being` fixed io the i'iihnlfir end olf thehandle.

in ii'nniersion electric limiter ei'inipiising :i handle having :ituhiilur ond forming :i chamber, :i lmii oi expoed enrhon elev-Y trodes7erich having one end fixed lo die Chamber of the handle; ineens forholding ihe electrodes; :ipfirt io provide :in inierniedi :ite wzierhenling space, :ind :i noninoiillie shell having one end iX-ed to ihehandle, Said shell inelossing' the pair of electrode4 :ind havingopenings to admit Water thereto.

In testimony whereof l. here herennto ses niy hond in the presence oilwo Siiberihing witnesses.
